James Sheridan's book is a fascinating look at certain scenarios existing in the world at the current time. The dialog he utilizes supports underlying beliefs that (a) the assassination of ex U.S. president John Kennedy involved an international conspiracy, not the approach that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone assassin, and (b) the Pharmaceutical industry is rife with schemes to prevent known cures for diseases like cancer to become accredited. The industry promotes the sale of medicines that might even harm the patient in place of cures solely in the interest of making more money than a cure might bring in.
Dan Travis, an expert on several unsolved mysteries, is on a book promotion tour when a message unexpectedly received moves him into a secret war based upon a data file. He knows the person sending him the message and is also immediately galvanized into action when he is met by a lady purporting to be that man's sister. She tells him that she is a government agent and will help him get the file and publicize it.
The action immediately accelerates with a man named Mr. Green, an agent of the U.S. government and backed by many of his own people, begins to chase Dan and the girl now working with him. While moving forward in their search for the data file Dan learns about the reality of both the killing of John F Kennedy and the truth about big Pharma's conspiracy to crush many cures in order to continue to rake in money. The key to the plot by the Pharmaceutical companies lies with another secret organization this time with doctors sworn to bring out the truth.
Whether Mr. Sheridan is exposing extremely high-level conspiracies or not does not detract from the sheer force of the author's descriptions. The book quickly mesmerizes the reader and does not allow it to be put down until finished. Moreover, readers of the novel will not only be looking for future works by the author, but also spending some time on the internet in attempts to ascertain the possibility or not of the conspiracies described being rooted in fact. I did spend some time searching for the possibility or not of the book being correct in its allegations but I leave my findings for readers to investigate on their own.

Intense and intriguing...

At first, he main characters seem disconnected. However, as you delve into this read, you will find suspense at every corner and unfold the web that interconnects those in the story.

Generally I would not choose a book from this genre - but I am glad that I did! A truly "hard to put down" drama!

Many Thanks to IPA, Dudley Court Press and NetGalley for a superb read!
